OpLove: Will’s Homecoming

Yesterday, I photographed Will’s reunion with his wife Van at the Atlanta airport. When Van and I were still in the parking garage, Will called Van to say his flight was an hour early and that he was already in baggage claim area, so we hurried into the airport to go find him. When we got to baggage claim, it was nearly empty. Then Van spotted Will at the other end of baggage claim and started running across the airport towards him. I took this first shot as I was running after her, and I love that you can really tell how fast she was running and how excited she was to finally see her husband:

Here they are holding with the sign Van made to welcome Will…
